This later edition Avalon poster featured the Dead for a three night run in October of 1968. This black and white image is from the later days of Family Dog at the Avalon. Clearly the budget was small for producing posters by this point in the series and the promoter was only able to produce black and white images. 

We're please to offer the very FIRST CGC graded example to appear at public auction.
